Western farmers raise large number
Of cattle and sometimes give each cali
the use Of a cow through the summer.
more to save labor. perhaps. than with
. distinct view of raising extra animals;
but. after weaving. generally let the
calves shift for themselves. II they
would keep up this fine start given 10
the calf and allow no stoppage Of growth
till the steer was three years old, they
would produce such fine animals and
such weight as would bring the highest
figures in the market. Eighteen hum
dred pounds may lie made as IN average
weight ut three years. instead Of twelve
to fourteen hundred, and this eighteen
hundred pounds will usually bring
more. per pound. than the lighter
weight, which. with the extra four hum
dred pounds. will make large increase
in TIE price of the steer. This would
be the result Of keeping the calf grow
ing subsequently as it had on itS moth
er's milk. which may be done with only
twenty-five per cent extra food; and
who does not see that this extra food
will pay the best profit?
The West produces excellent pastur-
age. but no country can always rely
on abundance Of grass through the
whole season. It thls often occurs that
during portion Of nearly every sum-
mer pssturage is quite insufficient to
produce the most profitable growth.
Just here Indian corn comes in to moro
than make up the deficiency. One.
quarter the amount fed in winter. added
to meager pasturage. will produce .
growth far beyond the most successful
outdoor winter feeding. Many expert
ments 60 to show that our improved
ruminating animals can utilize moro
nutriment than they are able to digest
in the bulky form Of grass. and that
small amount Of grain added will pay
q handsome profit. even with good pas
turage. but this is emphatically true
luri"g the periods Of short pasturage.
These facts appeal to the Western
cattle feeders with the greatest force.
With their cribs full and running over.
still they allow their cattle to pick. in
many cases. on scanty pasture. when .
small feed of their corn would pay .
good price per bushel fed to their
steers. There are hundreds Of farmers
in the West who are neglecting this
profitable market for their corn at their
own doors. looking for an outside mar
ket- A thorough reform is needed
in the general management Of stock
in summer. When the cost of keeping
up animal heat is 1T the lowest, then
also the cost Of putting on q pound Of
flesh is the lowest. and the stock farmer
should use this opportunity to push his
steers to the utmost.-NdtioH0l Live

THE BETTER WAY.

Who serves his country best.
not he who, for brief and stormy space
leads forth her armies to the fierce ARRAY.
snort 10 the time OF turmoil and unrest
Long years OF peace succeed 1t and replace;
There is . better way.
VINO serves his country best!
NOT ne who guides her senates in debate,
And makes tho laws which are her prop and
stay;
Not he who wears the poets purple vest
AND sings her songs OF love and grief and fate
There is better way.
He serves his country best
VINO joins the tide that lifts her nobly on;
For speech has myriad tongues for every day,
And song but one; and law within the breast
II stronger than the craven Law on stone:
There is = better way.
He serves his country best
Who lives pure life and doeth righteous deed,
And walks straight paths, however others stray,
And leaves his sons Is uttermost bcquest
A stainless record which all men may read;
This is the better way.
No drop but serves the slowly lifting tide,
No dew but has an errand to some flower,
No smallest star but sheds some helpful ray
And man by man. each giving to all the rest.
Make the firm bulwark OF the cOuntry's power;
There is no better way.

RECORD OF WILLIAM BEACH, WHO HAS THRICE DE-
FEATED HANLAN.
The recent victory OF Beach over Hanlan on
the Nepeau River, New South Wales, confirms
for him the right to the title OF champion OF the
world. There are Americans, says the Philade,-
phia Press, who believe that Teemer or Gaudaur
could defeat him. but It is unlikely that either of
these redoubtable sculers will meet the champion,
who is said to have expressed his intention to re-
tire. william Beach Is a resident OF DaptO, New
South Wales. He was born at Adhesion, Surrey

sided ever since. His height Is feet 10 inches,
